EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment during the visit of the Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, to India in January 1875. The Prince is seen on board the HMS May Frere, a British warship anchored in Bombay harbor, watching in awe as fireworks light up the night sky. The Prince's visit to India was a significant event in British colonial history, marking the first time a British monarch had set foot on Indian soil. The tour was an opportunity for the Prince to strengthen the political and economic ties between Britain and India, as well as to showcase the might and influence of the British Empire. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the grandeur and spectacle of the Prince's visit, with the May Frere, surrounded by other ships in the harbor, serving as a majestic backdrop to the fireworks display. The image transports us back to the 1870s, offering a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the British Raj era.
